TRAINING

Training in fall protection at introductory, intermediate or advanced levels provided to supervisory personnel and to users of fall protection equipment and systems, either at our location or on-site. Customer tailored programs available.

• Introduction to Typical Fall Protection Equipment
• Qualified Inspector of Fall Protection Equipment
• Fall Protection For Electric and Telecomm Utilities (Operations and Construction)
• Fall Protection - Transport (Buses, Trucks, Rail/Street/Subway Cars, Aircraft)
• Competent Trainer in Fall Protection & Qualified Inspector of Fall Protection Equipment
• Fall Protection for Engineers

• One day of hands-on training introducing participants to all typical components of various fall arrest systems and the principles of their operation.
• This course directly precedes and is designed to complement the Qualified Inspector of Fall Protection Equipment Seminar.
• This seminar is offered by popular demand for those who may be new to fall protection and it builds a foundation for topics which will be expanded upon during the Qualified Inspector of Fall Protection Equipment Seminar.
• Take a minute to read some Additional Information which will help determine if this Seminar is right for you.

• Two days of extensive hands-on training while inspecting samples of typical fall protection equipment in small 4 person teams
• Equipment employed during the hands-on training was made by several major manufacturers.
• Participants receive a 300 page Manual with detailed Instructions and Inspection Record Forms.
• Take a minute to read some General Information

• Take a minute to read some Additional Information about this Seminar.

• The "Fall Protection for Engineers" workshop is six days (57 hours) of intensive, advanced studies in fall protection engineering and design. It is offered to all safety professionals who undertake or retain others to design anchors, horizontal lifelines, fall arrest systems, select energy absorbers and calculate forces and clearance requirements. The course provides analytical techniques that are not available at post-secondary institutions or in textbooks and professional journals.
• Participants will learn about available fall protection technology, the validity of the current 8 kN limit for the maximum arresting force, the inherent hazards of arresting falls, various fall protection regulations and the CSA Z259 family of standards including the recent Z259.16 standard for the design of active fall protection systems. Post-fall rescue will also be addressed.
• The two main speakers will be Greg Small, P.Eng. (High Engineering Corp.) and Andrew C. Sulowski, P.Eng. (Sulowski Fall Protection Inc.). Both speakers are internationally recognized experts in fall protection with more than 55 years of combined experience in this highly specialized field of safety engineering. They have already trained several hundred engineers and other professionals from Canada and USA in the physics of fall protection.
• This seminar will emphasize practical industrial solutions in fall protection and will provide and grant participants a one year renewable license to use MS Excel spreadsheets provided by High Engineering Corp. The software includes many useful tools to analyze simple and complex vertical and horizontal lifeline systems.
• Although the course is intended for engineering professionals, a solid understanding of high school level physics and mathematics has allowed many non-engineers to properly comprehend the techniques taught in the seminar.
• All participants will receive two manuals, two books and ten CSA Z259 standards.
• Participants who pass the exam will receive certificates backed by the Canadian Standards Association that are valid for five years.
